History

Established in 2011.

I created this business to help families. Too many babies are lost every year to preventable illness like Diarreah Disease or the Flu. Breastmilk is a powerful weapon against these horrible preventable illnesses. Breastfeeding my children not only made them healthy and smart but it also impowered me and made me stronger. Now I have the skills the passion and the opportunity to help other families to breastfeed comfortably and successfully. I am now an International Board Certified Lactation Consultant. I am approved by the International Board of Lactation Consultant Examiners, The sole governing Body of the Lactation Field. Our office has an atmosphere where women of all ages will feel comfortable to come to.

Meet the Business Owner

Business Owner

When I had my first baby I automatically breastfeed. Since my sister had breastfed I just did it naturally without hesitation. With the second baby since she had Jaundice and I didn’t know any better I only formula fed. The difference in immunity was so obvious that when I had the third baby I automatically went back to breastfeeding. While attending a class at my local WIC office, I was offered a job working partime to help encourage other mothers to breastfeed. Not only did I enjoy helping other mothers with their breastfeeding concerns I also found something I was good at!

The United States Department of Agriculture has education programs that offer scholarships to women who want to expand their education. Through these scholarship programs and the education reimbursement programs that WIC offered I was able to go back to school.

Now that I am Certified ProfessionaI am able to give back that same support to other mothers that was given to me.
